Cordingly, David2011
Book
Today most of our knowledge about pirates comes from classics like 'Treasure Island' and the films starring Johnny Depp and Keira Knightley. But who were the real pirates of the Caribbean and where did they come from? And how were they tamed? David Cordingly's book reveals that the true story is at least as gripping as the legends.
